What Is A Republican?
Con, Inc spent years on "What is a woman?" so can we focus a little time here?
America is going through a political identity crisis right now.
It is most obviously playing out on the Democratic side, when you hear their political actors struggle to define what a woman is. It goes as far as one of their Congressional Representatives openly posing as a woman and then goes into fits of rage when others refer to him as a Congressman or Gentleman.
But less obvious are the frauds posing as Republicans that rage when you TRY to practice core Republican principles.
A normal reaction to an identity crisis, is to go into deep introspection and that is exactly what happened when womanhood was challenged. Now the culture is responding with more discussion challenging the woke BS and the rediscovery of traditional cultural norms that created healthy families for generations.
What we need now are challenges to the frauds masquerading as Republicans by clearly defining “What is a Republican.”
I know many will say we already have “RINOs,” which stands for Republicans In Name Only, but that term was first coined back when I was leaving high school in 1992. And here we are now 33 years laters, and these frauds have just grown in numbers and influence.
Can you imagine calling trannies WINOs, “Woman In Name Only”? THEY’RE NOT WOMEN! So why are we allowing these frauds to use the name Republican?
So let’s do some introspection on “What is a Republican.”
Our country didn’t have a Republican Party when it was first founded because it would have been as stupid as listening to people say they were PRO AIR vs ANTI-AIR. You typically don’t need to differentiate yourself from something that everyone agrees on.
Someone asked what kind of government we had as Ben Franklin was leaving the formal adoption of our Constitution and he famously quipped, “A Republic, if you can keep it.”
So it’s not a surprise that the modern Republican party really came about during our Civil War when the country was being torn apart and the people at that time found their roots in our original Republican principles.
But what is a Republican? And what make them different?
At the core of Republican principles is a fierce opposition to tyrants and any form of organization that mimics them. The reason the Bill of Rights was even added to the Constitution was to enshrine INDIVIDUAL RIGHTS and tell the government as well as other tyrannical leaning groups these rights were bestowed to us by God and unalienable, which means “impossible to take away or give up.”
So how does that play out in the Republicans’ approach to politics?
A Republican form of government leaves power closest to the people. If the individual is truly respected, they can walk into their local county or parish and be listened to on any issue. What organically came from this way of governance was “Roberts Rules of Order” that were created by a US Army Officer trying to have local meetings in San Fransisco about 100 years after the signing our Declaration of Independence. It balanced the ability for any individual to interject or call for a motion which then resulted on the group voting. But it also balanced rules for decorum so meetings didn’t devolve into shouting matches.
That form of governance became so successful, it was also organically adopted as the standard for all for-profit and non-profit organizations.
So why was it so successful?
Because every individual MUST be listened to. (See the point on the UNALIENABLE RIGHTS above). That is why our first amendment is “Freedom of Speech.” Does it mean your idea or problem will be addressed — Not always. But the first step is making the idea known to others in your group through the freedom of speech. Then the group, which is typically people with shared interests, will make a decision AS A BODY on what to do next.
That simple act of respect for the individual is paramount for any healthy organization to function. Without it, I have witnessed time after time where it breaks group cohesion and typically leads to the downfall of the organization. The board will either turn tyrannical, or the meetings devolve into chaos because the people fail to respect the rules. If the leaders don’t follow the rules, why should the people?
Our founders were incredibly wise to make this core right the first amendment of our new Constitution. It was probably because they just got done fighting a tyrannical king who refused to listen to them.
So because freedom of speech and local power were such cherished principles, the original Republican party tended to organize at the county level with “Republican Executive Committees” or RECs as the are called in Florida. These local RECs would elected their local boards and then the members, or those boards, would elect the people who would have a voice at the state level. The state level would in-turn do the same by electing the national representatives.
Sounds like a great way to keep things local while giving a voice to every county with their representatives at the state and national levels. Basically, the same way we send our elected representatives to our state capitals and Washington DC. And this functioned for nearly a hundred years as locals worked within these groups to bring forth local candidates for local, state and federal offices.
The key to all of this was the core Republican principle that local individuals had an unalienable right to be heard in their local groups.
But is this the way things work today?
Now the frauds who call themselves Republican in Florida have gone as far as to say the Republican Party is a “Private Political Organization” which can control who is allowed to be a member. Kind of like a country club.
I remember the phrase “Country Club Republicans” back in the 90s but I thought at the time anyone NOT adhering to Republican principles would be labeled “frauds”. Now I realize the crooks in the GOP just usurped the Reagan Revolution and began masquerading as Republicans because the brand had been so favorability with Americans. I’m sure they plan to do the same with Trump’s brand since that was so successful.
So in my opinion, if a person doesn’t believe in an individual’s right to free speech in groups where they can then freely choose their representatives locally, they’re NOT A REPUBLICAN. Anyone who still think they are, mind as well also believe a man can put on a dress and be a woman.
Because BEING a Republican is not a costume you can just put on. It comes down to what you BELIEVE AND PRACTICE. If you TRULY believe those principles you will act accordingly.
So if actions speak louder than words, let’s look at some of things happening in Florida right now. I would also guess this is probably happening in other states as well.
Dan Schultz’s Precinct Strategy set Floridians into action back in 2021 as thousands across the state mobilized and join their local RECs. At first, some counties welcomed the new members, while some corrupt counties immediately found ways to block these long-registered Republicans from joining.
But after years of playing by the rules at the local level, Floridians organized and voted in MAGA Republicans to many of their county executive boards across the state.
The frauds posing as Republicans didn’t like that and felt their grip on power being threatened. So when their candidates lost in a straight up fair vote, they went full tyrannical. Evan Power who is the current chair of the Republican Party of Florida (RPOF) and a paid lobbyist at Ramba Consulting, shut down the county RECs and labeled them “dYsFuNcTiOnAl” claiming they were “overwhelmed by complaints” that were typically filed by the same people that lost in the fair elections.
And more recently, some Florida Republican State Representatives told us how the these same frauds ACTUALLY run our Legislature. We work hard at the local level to elected someone we believe is the best person to represent our district. But when they arrive to do that job, they are separated out into “classes” that strangely mimic high school. Newly elected members are called “Freshmen.”
Freshmen are told, shut up and follow orders and if they do, they may be added to a committee in the next year. Of course those “orders” are coming from the frauds dressed up like Republicans, because we thought our representatives could speak openly about the issues we sent them to the capital to cover. They’re OUR REPRESENTATIVES.
If OUR REPRESENTATIVES do try to stand up for their local constituents, no matter their seniority, the frauds dressed up like Republicans will lash back. We recently heard FL District 87 Rep, Mike Caruso who tried to push for the recent immigration bill was “sent to the basement.” Which means his office was moved far away from all the rest of the Representatives to the basement of the capital building. This leadership is acting more like Silence of the Lambs, than anyone practicing Republican principles.
So if your newly elected Representatives are a good little girl or boy and they do what the frauds told them to do, then the “Republican” Party will help them win their next election. Meaning they will protect them against all the people they pissed off back home for not doing what they were elected to do.
I wonder if that includes them being on fake voter guides and/or having enough mail-in ballots arrive to insure they win over any challengers?
Kind of makes you wonder why these frauds push BANK YOUR VOTE and encourage everyone to vote early. How else would they know how many votes they need to get their preferred candidate to win in the primary?
This year, the Republican leadership team of the Florida House told our returning members that the representatives worked for the House and they weren’t the Governor’s “bitch.”
Does that sound Republican to you?
Probably the easiest way to measure support for their current efforts would be looking at who donates to the Republican Party of Florida (RPOF). Common sense would tell you the people who feel they are being listened to would be donating the most to this organization.
Well Evan Power recently starting boasting about collecting $5.9 million in the first quarter of 2025.
The problem is when you dive into those numbers, only 3% of those donations actually came from individuals. In fact, the REAL oligarchs are rewarding these frauds by donating nearly 97% of all their funding.
Some of their biggest donations came from woke corporations like Universal Studios, Disney and the PACs pushing to control Cannabis (Marijuana) production.
The RPOF has nearly NO REPUBLICAN GRASSROOTS SUPPORT!
So how on earth can they still claim to be Republicans and true representatives of the people who elected them back home?
Well if you have been following me for any time, you probably already know those elections are just as fraudulent as the folks currently claiming to be Republicans.
But the reason these frauds are now turning tyrannical at the local level is because they know the elections are rigged. And because they know they’re rigged, these frauds no longer need to play into the illusion of local support any longer to keep their grift going.
Because you’re not the ones paying OR electing them to pose as Republicans.
Grassroots support is way less than 3%. Further investigation into those individual “contributions” will reveal they are actually tickets being sold to events like the annual meeting and the “Disruptors Dinner”. Perfectly fitting name since they’re actively disrupting the grassroots.
Kris-spot on. So hard to teach people what a conservative or a republican is let alone a conservative republican. In Montana we call them DIRPs (Democrats infiltrating the Republican Party). Too many conservatives aren't paying attention and fall for the DIPs calling themselves the true conservatives. Anyone who has found a successful method for convincing the republican voter how to spot a DIRP let me know. I published the voting record of our DIRP in layman's terms (in a physical paper with scorecards etc.) and the masses wouldn't believe it. I was shocked. Our guy was a liar who truly believes he is a republican and a conservative and was able to convince enough republicans and democrats to vote for him in the primary (ugh-we have open primaries in MT and again our conservatives are too uninformed to understand why that is a bad thing).
